[1000mp] Receive/transmit antenna setup on Mark V

[Bob Kocisko]

Pete,

I just got a FT-1000MP & am looking to interface it with my VHF/UHF xvtrs &
sequencers.  I was planning on using the TX GND (with LIN sw on) to initiate
the sequencer which will then drive various relays.

73,
Bob, K6PF

That capability is available in several places on the back of the radio,
including the TX GROUND jack (if the LIN switch is turned on).
